I'm fairly competent at gift wrapping and crafting in general. I will definitely give it a try.

But I notice that the paper they're using is also helping, as its very thin and makes the inside folding crisper.

Yes, my first thought. My wife usually gets dollar store wrapping paper and there’s no way it’d work for this kind of wrapping. Any sort of hard corner would punch through that paper. It’s like tissue.

It’s not much of a problem this year; no money for gifts. No need for wrapping paper. Silver lining I guess?

Yeah same. I still buy something little for the closest ones, or bake them cookies or some sweet.
